[QUOTE="user 21074, post: 485127, member: 21074"] Yes have rope start also.Just got done with conversion and took my battery off of riding Mower and it crank no problem.Charging circuit seemed to be working as I did see increase in voltage while increasing rpm.Was on muffs so couldn’t take it too high.I was concerned about the starter since bench tested only the gear popped out but right back in.Guess they have to be engaged to stay up.Was not sure about that since I had another used one doing the same thing.Only other concern was the timing stopper for the high end. Bracket I used was from a 35hp (34*)so the screw was not adjusted for my motor(30*).Made some measurements and put it at full throttle and locked the stator plate in position best I could and took old bracket off and put new starter and bracket on and it was off so adjusted and thought about doing the Joe Reeves Timing method which can be done out of water to see if it is ok?Just need to get it on the water and hopefully that is the last step and engine doesn’t blow..thanks for the input on battery.
